Some of today, in photos

Shuffling art around, there are some main stays in the gallery at all times! As we hang the show, we reorder works from artists and here are some of the items coming through and moving around today...Mary Ann Davis Pottery ...more on the way!Egg-a-go-go! Handpainted pillows ... lovely!the giant iris raku orb by the incomparable Jane Kaufmann!

Tomorrow, we hang the exhibition. It takes a few days before to let everything sink in to where you feel good about what the sum of the parts will be. And the spackling and painting and hole removal ... the cooking, the wine lugging, the ideas of music and having everything in place. Of course nothing at this point in the year would be possible without the lovely intern, Joanna. More on her later as she deserves it! How did we do it without her before?Large Celestial by Ron Fountain

So show and tell a bit for now of parts and pieces, more of Ron's work for all that asked and well, whatever I find as remains of the day which was more than hectic, June 13th ... here's a snippet - click on images for larger views.

How remarkable to be able to surround yourself with so much beauty on a daily basis, and to be able to meet and represent so many fascinating people. I am especially drawn to the pottery and these Ron Fountain works.
